1. When the pump is newly installed, you should
check your pump daily that it is performing
correctly.
2. If you notice a drop in performance (low flow) you
should clean the strainer cage. Cleaning intervals
will vary depending on the condition of your pond's
water. This could be as often as weekly in the
summer months. To clean the strainer cage, open
the clips and remove the pump. The cage can then
be wiped clean of debris blocking the strainer holes
and washed in clean water. You should also check
that the pump chamber & rotor are not blocked
with debris.
3. At least once a year you should completely
disassemble the pump including the rotor assembly
as described below and wash all components in
clean, fresh water.
Replace worn or broken parts.
4. If you live in a hard water area (water with high
levels of calcium or limescale content), the pump,
rotor assembly and steel can should be cleaned
at regular intervals. The cleaning interval required
will vary depending on the hardness of your water,
so you should inspect for signs of calcium build up
regularly.
To clean off calcium or limescale deposits a small
nylon bristled brush (such as a toothbrush) may be
used.
Dismantle the pump as described above and
remove the rotor. Clean the limescale deposits
from the rotor using fresh clean water If
excessive calcium deposits build up, the thermal
overload protection may be activated (See
INTRODUCTION).
Pump Dismantling & Assembly
(6000 & 8000) - Fig 22 & 24
1. Switch off the pump and remove the strainer cage
as described above and remove the pump.
2. Ensure the pump is cool before dismantling it.
3. Unscrew the 4 posidrive screws (a) from the
chamber.
4. Gently pull the pump chamber (b) squarely away
from the motor body (e).
5. Pull the rotor assembly (c) out of the motor body.
Important! Take extra care so as to not drop the
rotor assembly.
6. Wash out all of the components in clean water. Do
not use detergents or other chemical cleaners.
7. Ensure the o-ring (d) is in its groove (Fig 24a &
24b).
8. Replace the rotor assembly into the motor body
ensuring that the holes in the plate behind the
impeller locate onto the pins on the motor body
(Fig 24c & 24d).
9. Refit the pump chamber. Twist the chamber to
align the screw holes and refit the screws taking
8
care not to push out the nuts in the motor body
(Fig 24e).
10. Return the pump to the strainer cage.
Pump Dismantling & Assembly
(12000 & 15000) - Fig 23 & 25
1. Switch off the pump and remove the strainer cage
as described above and remove the pump.
2. Ensure the pump is cool before dismantling it.
3. Unscrew the 4 posidrive screws (a) from the
chamber.
4. Rotate and pull the pump chamber (b) squarely
away from the motor body (e).
5. Pull the rotor assembly (c) out of the motor body.
Important! Take extra care so as to not drop the
rotor assembly.
6. Wash out all of the components in clean water. Do
not use detergents or other chemical cleaners.
7. Replace the rotor assembly into the motor body
(Fig 25a), ensuring that the holes in the plate
behind the impeller locate onto the pins on the
motor body (fig 25b).
8. Note that the o-ring groove is formed when the
rotor has been correctly positioned (Fig 25c). Fit
the o-ring (d) over the rotor. Ensure the o-ring is on
correctly positioned between the rotor plate and
motor body (Fig 25d).
9. Refit the pump chamber. Twist the chamber to
align the screw holes and refit the screws taking
care not to push out the nuts in the motor body
(Fig 25e).
10. Return the pump to the strainer cage.
Winter Care
1. Your pump should be removed from your pond
during the autumn.
2. Clean the pump as described above.
3. During winter, we recommend storing the pump in
a bucket of water. This is to prevent the bearings
from drying out and potentially seizing. This is
especially important if you have been using your
pump in a hard water area. The bucket of water
containing the pump should be stored in a frost
protected area.
Troubleshooting/Fault Finding
Important - Please keep this section for reference.
LOW FLOW FROM PUMP
1. Ensure that the strainer cage is clean.
2. A small diameter outlet pipe will restrict outlet
flow.
3. Ensure that there is no blockage within the pump
chamber.
4. If using the pump amphibiously, ensure that the
ball joint is not being used and check that the
